Extends two independent AES50 connections by up to 100 m with CAT5 cable High channel capacity - 48 channels @ 96 khz or 96 channels @ 48 khz bidirectional operation Supports dual-redundant AES50 networks (X and Y connections) Rugged locking Neutrik* ethercon connectors used for AES50 connections Status indicator LEDs on front panel for each AES50 port Dual-redundant power supply inputs with locking Switchcraft* connectors External auto-ranging universal switch-mode power supply adapter Aluminium extrusion casing with stackable protective silicone rubber sleeve Compact and rugged design 3-Year Warranty Program* Designed and engineered in England The DN9610 provides a very costeffective solution to the 100 metre limitation that Ethernet and CAT5 cabling imposes on the physical size of AES50 networks. Its compact form factor allows DN9610 to be placed where required to increase the length of a network connection, all that is needed is a source of mains power. DN9610 acts as a repeater to allow two independent AES50 connections to be extended by up to an additional 100 metres, without the need for format conversion or the use of optical fibre cable. DN9610 is capable of both 48 khz and 96 khz operation, with its two AES50 connections able to operate at different sample rates simultaneously. Each connection can support 48 bidirectional channels at 96 khz, or 96 bidirectional channels at 48 khz sample rate. The two AES50 connections are also ideal for use with dual-redundant networks, such as the X and Y connections used on MIDAS digital console systems. Multiple DN9610 units can be connected in series, allowing AES50 to be transmitted over considerable distances. Whilst AES50 is bidirectional in operation, to maximise ease-of-use when cascading multiple units, the two AES50 connections on DN9610 each feature a nominal input and output port to simplify reference clock distribution. Through-unit propagation delay is less than 0.5 microseconds, which has a negligible effect on overall AES50 system link latencies. *All third-party trademarks are the property of their respective owners.

Digital Audio Networking SuperMAC (AES50-Compliant) digital audio networking technology from KLARK TEKNIK simultaneously provides high channel counts, ultra low and deterministic latencies, sample-synchronous and phase-aligned networked clock distribution, error detection and correction, network redundancy, and ease of deployment and use to meet the demanding requirements of live concert touring. DN9610 is compatible with all MIDAS digital consoles, audio system engines, digital I/O units, as well as with any other AES50-equipped devices. Front Panel Indication DN9610 features status LED indicators for its dual redundant power supply inputs and input and output port activity for the two AES50 connections for at a glance status display, even at wide distances and viewing angles. Built for the Road Featuring a tough aluminium extrusion, the DN9610 is designed for the rigours of live concert touring. The protective silicone rubber sleeve also insulates the DN9610 chassis to provide electrical isolation. Premium Neutrik ethercon connectors are used to ensure reliable network connections, night after night. 2 of 8
Universal Switch-Mode Power Supply DN9610 is provided with an external auto-ranging universal switch-mode power supply adapter, which is auto-voltage sensing for use on a worldwide basis. DN9610 also features dual-redundant external power supply inputs which can operate from +9 V to +18 V DC, providing seamless switchover in the unlikely event of a loss of one power supply. Locking Switchcraft* connectors are used to eliminate the risk of the power supplies becoming unplugged. You Are Covered We always strive to provide the best possible Customer Experience.
